The car pulled into the hospital, Zachary found a parking spot and parked. With familiar ease, he located the psychiatrist's office and knocked before entering.

"Mr. Fuller has arrived. Ms. Carston's diagnosis for today has concluded. Her condition has not improved, but rather, it has worsened. I just administered a sedative to help her sleep." When Zachary heard this, his expression turned solemn. "I understand."

"Mr. Fuller, I hope you take this matter to heart. Ms. Carston's condition had significantly improved before, but in the past couple of days, it has suddenly taken a turn for the worse. There's a chance it could develop into severe depression, and that would be quite difficult to handle."

"Indeed." Zachary nodded in agreement.

Upon learning about his marriage, Susanna was deeply affected, causing her condition to

worsen.

He walked to the bedside, looking at Susanna's pale face, feeling an exceptional sense of guilt

in his heart.

Once upon a time, there was a girl who was gentle and lively. However, due to her struggle with mental illness, her personality drastically changed, and she attempted suicide several times. He knew he could not let her down. Zachary was seated on the stool beside the bed.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Susanna woke up in a daze. "Zack, is that you? Am I dreaming? How come you're here?"

"Susanna, it's me. I've come to see you," Zachary said to her with a gentle smile.

She lifted her face, her expression gentle. "Zack, you're not working tomorrow, so would accompany me for a shopping trip?"

"All right."

At noon, Allison made a phone call. "How is it, Nora? Did he attend the charity dinner last night? How did he find it?"

Based on the old lady's tone, she evidently had no idea that Susanna had also attended the charity banquet..

Lenora chuckled and responded, "It's quite nice. The desserts were delicious."

Allison chuckled. "All you know is to eat desserts. Didn't you let Zack buy you any jewelry or something?"

"Zack gifted me a bangle. It's quite beautiful."

"All right, all right. When you have time, bring it back for me to sec. I wonder what kind of bangle it is." Allison was overjoyed, secretly thinking that this rascal was quite considerate. "Okay."
